An Introduction Of Applied Linguistics

Applied linguistics first concerned itself with principles and practices on the basis of lin- guistics. Applied linguistics also included solution of language-related problems in the real world. Some applied linguists are con- cerned with helping planners and legislators in countries develop and implement a lan- guage policy or in helping groups develop scripts, materials, and literacy programs for previously unwritten languages. The book is designed to help the students and profes- sionals to quickly acquire the knowledge and skills they need for this subject.
